Music
The Shabbat Unplugged Band
The Shabbat Unplugged Band is a wonderful, engaging band of synagogue members whose sole purpose is to elevate prayer. From Beatles services to courtyard casual summer Shabbat evenings, this band is bringing soul to our prayer with monthly services (weekly throughout the summer!).
Choirs
The Pop Up Choir and High Holy Day Choir consists of about 30-50 members of Temple Solel and has the unique ability to lift up the congregation in song throughout the year and at the High Holy Days. We do not require prior experience or the ability to read music. We love to teach and work with new singers on this craft. We sing for the evening and morning services and occasionally sing at special events and services during the regular year.
Kavannah
Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.” – B. Auerbach
Kavannah is our youth band that has been grooving together for over 20 years! Kavannah is open for free to all high schoolers who are members of Temple Solel and proficient in playing an instrument and/or singing. Members play at all Teen Shabbat Experiences, as well as other Temple-wide events.
